    No need to buy both helis. Press LEFT trim tab DOWN 3 seconds, light will blink, optical flow is now off. Trim your helicopter and save settings by pressing LEFT trim tab DOWN again. Light will be solid. Optical flow will be on again. Turn it off by holding LEFT trim DOWN 3 seconds. It is now off , light will be blinking and no need to trim as the settings were saved. When the light is blinking, you can press R/L on LEFT trim tab to raise and lower HEAD SPEED. Lower headspeed for indoors and raise headspreed for outdoors. This works for all RC ERA helis.
    Love the Vids.

      Push the trim tab like a button works for me. And if you fly mode 1 , it's the right trim tab.

    Hey, just wanted to thank you for this informative and cool video. I've been wanting an RC helicopter but didn't want a POS or to spend too much and destroy it because of inexperience. I have found this helicopter and I'm getting it for myself for Xmas. Your review helped making my decision easier. $120 with three batteries on Amazon. Now I feel like a kid again all exited for a new learning experience and some laughs at my dogs trying to turn into King Kong. I've played with smaller ones to get the feel and that's how I learned to have fun with my fuzzy kids. I digress, great video and review and I appreciate the referral to this product.

    Thanks for the vacay video! These little heli's are cute but definitely toys in my opinion. With that in mind, they look like a fun way to kill 10 minutes on a lazy afternoon. The difference between optical flow and without seems pretty negligible. Might as well save a few bucks and go without. Thank your wife for giving you up for half a day to shoot, edit and post this video!

    Hi Steve, I also ordered the Bell 206 without optical flow, but it was out of stock. I see in the video that your helicopter also pulls to the left, mine does this too, you can trim 4 or 5 taps to the right. otherwise it flies great. I also ordered the red version yesterday and the blue ones with optical flow are available again. with the upgrade transmitter. it is also possible to connect this Heli to the Radio Master. is also on TH-cam. Steve, have fun with your new helicopter. 👍😃 🎮🚁

    I think the optical flow will help only to keep the altitude, the difference to the one without it, is that the sensor can detect the difference in level, if you fly for example over a table, will soon understand it, and will keep clear from the table, only affects the altitude. And btw you can buy the sensor and just plug in your helo if you want, $8, I don't like it at all, I want all the freedom that I can get, I wish had a free mode or at least 3D, I've one, red, is awesome, the price is great, the only bad thing is the flight time, around 10min.

    I'd avoid the OPTICAL FLOW version. I find with these toys it either doesnt work and if it does work it hinders flying by holding it back continuously trying to lock in.

  • @FarrellMcGovern
    @FarrellMcGovern 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Is it just me, or does the one without optical flow seems to fly more scale? Anyways, either is a nice looking aircraft! I always look up the tail number of these model flying aircraft, and always find out interesting information! For example, there has been three helicopters with the same tail number, all have been Bell/Bell-Textron (Canada) aircraft and were manufactured in Mirabel, Quebec, Canada and have been operated by the City of Los Angelis fire department. I would guess that is why they kept the same tail number and very similar livery. The first two aircraft were Bell 206 models, the same as the model aircraft flown here, and the latest one, registered in June 2024 is a very similar looking model, the Bell 505.
